How Much Does A Roof Repair Cost

There are many factors that go into the cost of a roof repair. Consequently, there is no fixed cost as every roof is different. Repairs can run anywhere from a few $100 up to $1,000s. If you believe your roof may need attention but are worried about the expense, this article will help to alleviate some of the unknowns.

common causes for roof repair

The following are the most common causes for roof repair we encounter:

to repair or to replace – financial viewpoint

For example, let’s say you have a 20-year-old shingle roof which is nearing the end of its warrantied lifespan. You have the option of paying for a repair with an estimated cost of $2,000 which is estimated to add 2 more years to the lifetime of your roof. After those 2 years, you will most likely face the additional cost of a full roof replacement.

Conversely, you could put that $2,000 towards a new shingle roof which will last 20-30 years. Furthermore, you could replace the roof with an entirely new roofing system such as a metal. The metal system is more expensive than a new shingle roof, but you get the benefit of potentially never needing to replace the roof again and spending less in repairs over time.

However, let’s say you have a 7-year-old shingle roof in need of a repair which will cost $500. In this situation, the money for a repair would be well spent, as the roof still has much of its useful life, and a simple repair could add 15+ years to its lifespan.
